Whirlwind and T-6 together

Whilst looking for some photos to send to a friend in Canada, I came across this one in a box and cant seem to figure out when or why?

The T-6 is a member of the Brazillian Smoke Squadron display team and the Royal Navy Whirlwind appears to from a survey ship. I’m not too sure about the latter, but does anyone else have any thoughts on the photo.

Best wishes,

Martin

If anyone can confirm if it is Aeroventures,then let me know please.:)

And if it is, I more than willing to give them the photograph.

The Whirlwind looks to be very much in the scheme of the Aeroventure example – HMS Protector Flight ?

The colour scheme certainly appears to be that of Aeroventures example,but I cannot say whether H.M.S. Endurance’s aircraft wore the same.

The other problem is Protector flight used 4 Whirlwinds(two of which are at Donny(HAS.1 & HAR.9),and I don’t know if the other two used piston or turboshaft engines.:confused:

If anyone can confirm if it is Aeroventures,then let me know please.:)
